The purpose of this manual is to describe a pavement maintenance management system (PAVER) for use at military installations. This system is available in either a manual or computerized mode. The maintenance standards prescribed should protect Government property with an economical and effective expenditure of maintenance funds commensurate with the functional requirements and the planned future use of the facilities. The majority of pavements on Army installations were built many years ago, and thus, many have reached their economic design life. Because of limited maintenance funds, timely and rational determination of maintenance and repair (M&R) needs and priorities are very important factors. These factors can be determined by using PAVER as described in this manual. The use of PAVER by personnel who have the responsibility for pavement maintenance should assure uniform, economical, and satisfactory surfaced area maintenance and repair. When information in this publication varies from that contained in the latest issue of Federal or Military specifications, the specifications shall apply. Reference to Federal, Military or other specifications is to the current issues of these specifications as identified by their basic number(s).
